Blooming great show of lilies

They are now in full bloom and are currently being enjoyed by the thousands of summer visitors who come to see them at Pocklington’s award winning attraction.

Pink hues on show.

More than one hundred varieties of hardy water lily grow on the upper and lower lakes, making the venue one of only two National Collections of these in the UK – the other being in Weymouth, Dorset.

Since 1964, the Stewart Trust has been responsible for developing the Water lilies in the Gardens and, in 1993, on a symposium visit by the International Water Lily society, it was commented that the collection was one of the best collections in a natural setting that they had ever seen.

The Water Lilies will be on display throughout the summer and Burnby Hall Gardens are open daily between 10am and 5.30pm.

So, why not come and see for yourself?
